New York. The boys at play.

Vancouver. Anje's hometown. Thank you Rekha and Ashok for your warm hospitality, incredible saag paneer and roti making lessons. We really loved our time with you guys. Lots of great water parks for Zar and Sol to splash around in, amazing wildlife, killer whales in the harbour, water taxis, cable cars, the best sushi, vegemite flavoured ice cream. Too short. We'll have to come back.

A couple of nights at the Ace Hotel in Seattle. Do it yourself waffles for breakfast. Yum.

Seattle. Markets, aquariums with Nemo and Dory, self catered breakfast at swish hotel, trolls hiding under bridges, space needle, good coffee and carnival rides for the boys.
